一种智能的大规模MIMO部分导频复用调度方案

导频污染被认为是多小区大规模MIMO通信系统的主要技术瓶颈,与以小区为单位进行导频复用方案不同,提出了一种减轻导频污染影响的优化的部分导频调度方案。该调度方案先将全部可用的正交导频序列划分为若干子集,把其中的一个导频子集设为导频复用子集,该导频子集在系统中每个小区复用,其余导频子集则在不相邻小区间复用;之后在目标小区基站对导频复用子集中的导频序列引起的小区间干扰进行测量,依次将导频复用子集中具有最小小区间干扰的导频序列分配给上行链路信道质量最差的用户,改善系统频谱利用率。分析和仿真结果显示该导频调度方案可以有效抑制导频污染,并且相比于目前已有的导频调度方案性能有所改进。     

一种新型混合跳频通信技术

文中提出了一种新型混合跳频通信技术,该技术结合传统跳频技术和差分跳频技术,在较窄的频带上采用差分跳频调制,并将该调制信号与另一更宽频带内的慢跳频信号进行混频,最终得到一个跳速高、频带宽的调制信号。接收端解调时,先按照传统跳频解调的方式进行慢跳频的解调,再按照差分跳频解调的方式对信号进行差分跳频解调。这种混合跳频通信技术在提高数据传输速率的同时,也可以很好地改善系统的误码率性能和抗单音干扰性能。

通过对正弦波、三角波和锯齿波三种调频信号差频测距方法的深入研究,认为三种波形调频差频频谱是连续的.正弦波和三角波调频时,差频有周期性不规则区,测距出现模糊,而锯齿波调频差频规律性强,测距清晰,并给出了锯齿波调频测距的一般表达式,理论上证明了锯齿波调频差频测距的连续性.在研究空靶脱靶量测量中,提出了利用锯齿波调频差频完成空靶脱靶量测量方法,探讨了系统的设计与实现.     

基于附加频移跳频的方案设计及其性能分析

为了提高跳频系统的抗预测性能,增大抗跟踪干扰能力,提出了基于附加频移的跳频通信。在给定跳频带宽内,该方案通过双序列的控制输出射频频率来提高其跳变复杂度,从而增大敌方对于跳频序列的正确建模和预测难度。基于混沌特性的分析方法,对采用L-G非连续抽头模型和Logistic-Kent级联映射构造的合成跳频序列的复杂度进行了计算,与相同模型下构造的常规跳频序列相比,基于附加频移的跳频通信均具有更大的复杂度。     

基于S变换的跳频信号参数估计

异速跳频互扰下跳频信号的参数估计

针对在跳频互扰情况下对多跳频信号参数盲估计困难的问题,提出了一种异速跳频互扰下跳频信号的参数估计方法。该方法利用异速跳频信号周期的差异,通过二值连通域标记处理、连通域时长聚类,将互扰跳频信号从时频谱上分离后分别进行估计参数。仿真结果表明,该方法能够实现在异速跳频信号互扰下对分量跳频参数的估计,且在高信噪比下能保证高的跳周期估计成功率与低的跳周期估计相对误差和起跳时刻估计相对均方误差。但互扰存在时的整体估计性能比仅单一跳频信号存在时会有所降低,同时该方法在SNR过低时会失效。

Helping hands: civil–military cooperation and Italy's military operation abroad

In the Post-Bipolar Era the growing complexity of the military operations requires a new approach for the resolution of international crises. Since the end of the Cold War, peace support operations (PSO) have become the mainstay and principal occupation of most Western armies. At the same time, Italy has been one of the most important actors in such an area. The article focuses on the cooperation between military and civil components (a process called CIMIC) as a key variable in the Italian PSOs. We will analyse in detail the main lessons learned from past military interventions as well as the general context in which new tendencies are taking place. The maintaining of a minimum security frame becomes essential to fulfil activities ‘collateral’ to the mission: reconstructing services and infrastructure, food distribution, water and medication, law and order, de-mining, training of local forces, and supporting local institutions. These are the main tasks to obtain thrust and support from the population.     

Terrorism,insurgency, kidnapping,and security in Africa's energy sector

Energy continues to serve as the bedrock of modern economies and the main driver of modern society. For Africa, the production and supply of energy resources such as crude oil, natural gas, uranium, coal, biomass, biofuels and other renewables are an important source of employment, rents, taxes, royalties and profits. This sector brings in several tens of billions of dollars of revenue annually. The production and delivery of such resources, however, depend on critical infrastructures such as pipelines, refineries, processing plants, terminals, rigs, electrical energy pylons, substations, pump stations, vessels, and tankers. These infrastructures have been attacked by terrorists, insurgents, vandals and saboteurs, all of whom see them as targets against which to register their grievances and extract concessions from the state. This paper is a chronological account of some of the documented incidents of terrorism, insurgency, kidnapping, destruction, sabotage, and human casualties suffered in the oil and gas sectors in Africa between 1999 and 2012. It is based on data extracted from the databases of the RAND Database of World Terrorism Incidents and the University of Maryland's Global Terrorism Database (GTD).     

A1 Qaeda and the radical Islamic challenge to western strategy

The September 11 global crisis prompted by the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon raises major questions concerning the nature and trajectory of terrorism in the post-Cold War global order. Hitherto, terrorism has been largely debated by analysts at the level of nation states. Terrorist and insurgent movements have also been largely anchored in nationalist and ethnic power bases even when they have sought to mobilise a transnational ideological appeal on religious or class grounds. There have been a few exceptions to this pattern such as the alliance between the German Baader-Meinhof group and the Japanese Red Army Faction, but even such international alliances as this did not, until at least the 1980s, presage anything like a global terrorist network necessitating a global strategic response. This study examines terrorism and global strategic responses.     

Tacit support for terrorism: The rapprochement between the USSR and Palestinian guerrilla organizations following the 1967 war

This article demonstrates the inconsistent and wavering Soviet attitude towards national liberation movements in general and the Palestinian organizations in particular. Until the late 1960s, the Soviets viewed these organizations with suspicion, hesitating to engage in political dialogue with them. However, in the 1970s, political and military events in the region, as well as modifications in the Kremlin's Cold War strategies, led to a general shift towards the Middle East in Soviet foreign policy. Soviet leaders showed increased willingness to provide certain Palestinian organizations with arms with which to conduct terrorist activities against Israeli, pro-Israeli, Jewish and Western targets. The article explores the complex relations between Palestinian organizations and the USSR in the field of international terror. The study also exposes and analyzes the nature and content of Soviet–Palestinian arms dialogues and transactions. It provides clear evidence that Soviet policymakers and other luminaries were fully informed of, and sometimes directly involved in, these transactions and dialogues at the highest levels.     

The UK,interrogation and Iraq, 2003–2008

The UK’s interrogation operations during the conflict in Iraq (2003–2008) are often portrayed by the media as involving significant amounts of mistreatment. This article demonstrates that these practices are not necessarily representative of the UK’s interrogation operations across this conflict. In doing so it contributes to the limited literature on the practice of interrogation and on the UK’s combat operations in Iraq. The UK’s interrogation capability, and therefore its intelligence-gathering capability, is shown to have rested primarily with the military’s Joint Forward Interrogation Team (JFIT). The JFIT suffered from limitations to the number, training and experience of its interrogators and interpreters. It is argued that maintaining a permanent, higher level of preparedness for interrogation by the British armed forces is desirable.     

Remembering and forgetting Mirambo: Histories of war in modern Africa

ABSTRACT

While the study of organised violence is considered essential to understanding the history of the West, and accordingly imbued with various layers of meaning and remembrance, war is widely regarded as inimical to the modern nation in Africa and stable development more broadly. Using examples drawn from primarily from East Africa, this paper considers the ways in which warfare in the deeper (‘precolonial’) past has been framed and envisioned in recent decades, in particular by governments whose own roots lie in revolutionary armed struggle and who began life as guerrilla movements. While in some cases particular elements of the deeper past were indeed mobilised in pursuit of contemporary political goals, in many other scenarios histories of precolonial violence were beheld as problematic and unworthy of remembrance. This paper highlights the paradox and ambiguity which has attended the memory of key aspects of Africa’s deeper past.     

Helping hands: external support for the KNU insurgency in Burma

This article analyses to what extent the Burmese KNU insurgency made use of external support from states, refugees, and diasporas. Based on extensive fieldwork it is concluded that support from neighbouring states and refugees has for years kept the Karen rebellion alive. Western countries perceived forms of resistance to the illegitimate Burmese regime as just and have therefore played a crucial role in the continuation of conflict in Karen State. It is important that policymakers and donors as well as executing organizations continue to reflect critically on the way they exercise their work.
